While the book boasts a companion GitHub repository with sample data, I found the link format somewhat cumbersome. Instead of direct links to file names, the authors use shortened URLs that are case-sensitive and redirect to the repository. Direct GitHub links would improve accessibility. The book's structure, with three sections of increasing chart complexity and challenging quizzes, reinforces learning and encourages deeper understanding. Overall: This book is a fantastic guide to data visualization with Power BI. Its clear explanations, practical examples, and focus on effective design make it a valuable asset for anyone seeking to transform data into compelling visual narratives. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #258,215 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #17 in Presentation Software Books #25 in Business Intelligence Tools #54 in Data Processing | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 208 Reviews | ## Images ![Data Visualization with Microsoft Power BI: How to Design Savvy Dashboards - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gd7Nr+PhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome book *by I***S on April 28, 2026* Fantastic book....I love it ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Visual Feast for Data Storytelling *by I***D on November 11, 2024* Kolokolov and Zelensky's "Data Visualization with Microsoft Power BI: How to Design Savvy Dashboards" is a must-read for anyone looking to unlock the storytelling power of data.

I got a paper copy - 400 pages of colorful chart examples and guides on how to work with Power BI. I skipped basic barcharts and started from the middle: waterfall, gantt and bullet charts. These chapters are well-structured and easy to follow. The author does an excellent job of balancing theory with practical examples, which made learning the concepts engaging and hands-on. I found myself constantly referring back to it during my projects, and I’ve already noticed a significant improvement in how I present data. If you're looking to deepen your understanding of visual storytelling through data, this book is a must-read. ## Frequently Bought Together - Data Visualization with Microsoft Power BI: How to Design Savvy Dashboards - Mastering Microsoft Power BI: Expert techniques to create interactive insights for effective data analytics and business intelligence, 2nd Edition - Microsoft Power BI Quick Start Guide: The ultimate beginner's guide to data modeling, visualization, digital storytelling, and more, 3rd Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/649783261-data-visualization-with-microsoft-power-bi-how-to-design-savvy](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/649783261-data-visualization-with-microsoft-power-bi-how-to-design-savvy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-17*
